"King of the Hill"
I have created an environment from which it shall prove difficult for us to extricate ourselves: I installed an extra laptop (I have a wide-screen 9500-series HP laptop on a laptop desk tethered to the 49" Vizio LCD HDTV, and Laura has a 15.4" Amax laptop perched at the ready near her desktop system in the living room) in the bedroom, atop the might stand on my side of the bed.
I placed Seasons 1 through 6 of "King of the Hill" in our watch instantly queue at Netflix. We enjoyed the first three episodes of season one last evening. There was no time to view Hank and the gang this morning, but tonight and tomorrow morning shall offer excellent viewing opportunities!
